CHAPTER 23

~Karen~

“We can't let this happen. Never!” Father spat, pacing about restlessly. He bit his index finger, his facial expression showing just how stressed he was.

We had just experienced the most unbelievable encounter of our lives earlier today. When we thought we had finally gotten rid of Shannon, she suddenly resurfaces, not as an ordinary omega this time, but as the bride of the powerful wolf king!

Who would ever believe that the king would ever look her way, let alone accepting her as his mate?

“King Evan is clearly out of his mind.” Mother snapped, her tone just as high and disappointed as father's. “How could he stoop so low to be with a lowly omega when he has a lot of women at his disposal?”

I remained silent, watching quietly as they voiced out their frustrations. I had a solution to all these, but I was not so sure they would welcome the idea.

But I had to give it a try anyway.

I cleared my throat loudly, hoping to catch their attention, and thankfully, I did.

  • Becoming The Wolf King's Fated Mate By Chance    Mission Accomplished

    CHAPTER 24~Karen~“What does that even mean? You know that's not possible. She has the guards at her beck and call and you think I can get to her easily?”I heaved a deep sigh, thinking of a better way to convince him. “I never said you should go after her.” “Okay, what then? What exactly do you want me to do?”“Relax, it’s simple,” I said under my breath, stealing another glance through the gate to make sure no one was watching. “Since she is now the new pack's healer, I need you to add some toxins into the medications which she is to administer to her patients.”“What the hell?!” He blurted out, his expression that of panic and shock. “Why would you even want to do that? That's totally ridiculous, and I'm sorry… I can't do it.”“Remember it comes with a reward.” I said, fixing my gaze on him. “At the end of the day, we'll both be at the winning end. You get your pay and I get what I want… that should be fair enough, right?”He sucked in a deep breath, like he was trying to reconsi

    Chapter 25~Shannon~Ever since that awful encounter with my so-called family, Evan’s behavior changed completely. The cold, ruthless man who once never spared a moment to yell or scold me… suddenly vanished.He was suddenly being so sweet and kind in his words, which was just so unusual of him. “Henceforth, the guards will accompany you wherever you go. I don't trust Logan anymore,” Evan had said firmly as I got ready to head out to the pack hospital.I begged endlessly to go alone but he wouldn't hear it.His eyes had that glint of conclusion, one that made me understand he was not going to change his mind anytime soon.After too many back-and-forths, I finally gave in.Two guards led me to the sleek black car waiting outside. They opened the door and ushered me in like I was royalty.The moment I slid into the seat, the door shut behind me with a heavy thud. Seconds later, the driver climbed in, and without delay, we pulled off.The ride felt longer than usual. Maybe it was just m

    CHAPTER 26~Shannon~“No… no, it can't be.” I muttered under my breath, my voice thick with confusion and fear. Before now, the doctors had all backed out, crossing their arms as they watched me from a distance.I took a step back, trying to figure out where all these were coming from. First it was Fred complaining of the meds I had prescribed, and now someone else is at the verge of dying–if not dead already… after taking the same medication I had prescribed.This was just too much for me to bear. I'm sure of the authenticity of those medications, and that's why I had them prescribed. How am I supposed to explain this sudden development?One of the doctors took a bold step forward, his face mean and cold this time. “Tell me, what did you do to him?” He quizzed, staring me dead in the eye.“I… I have no idea what's going on. I mean I couldn't have done this. Why would I possibly want him dead?” I defended, taking a step back each time he approached me.His jaw tightened, and for a mom

    CHAPTER 27~Evan~I waited patiently for her to say something… to explain to me what really happened, but she didn't–she couldn't even utter a word to defend herself.I was having my doubts about her earlier, but now I had every reason to believe she was really guilty of all the allegations levied against her.At this point, I saw no need to pester her any further. If she couldn't defend herself, then she might as well have a hand in the patient's death. But what I didn't quite understand was why she would ever indulge in such. “Why did you do it?” I asked again, breaking the silence. But she still didn't respond… didn't even blink an eye. She looked indifferent… like she was prepared for whatever punishment was going to come her way. This new attitude of hers was driving me crazy, even though I tried my best to stay sane.Deep down, I had a feeling all wasn't well with her. I really wanted to save her from the consequences of what she just did, but her silence wasn't helping matter

    CHAPTER 28~Shannon~I knew clearly that I was innocent of those allegations, but I didn't bother defending myself. Of what use would it be anyway since no one would pay me a listening ear? Not even Evan would be willing to listen to me no matter how hard I tried to defend myself.Just as Evan had ordered, the guards took me in the car, driving for so long until we finally arrived at the shores of the pack, towards the thick forest.The guards threw me out of the car and zoomed off like they never knew me for once. I found the closest tree branch and sat down, instantly accepting my fate.Though this was a thick, dangerous forest, known for housing different kinds of harmful animals, I still felt more relaxed here because it was far more peaceful than the palace.Time seemed to stretch endlessly and I thought for a moment that I was finally free from the whole trouble, until I caught the familiar scent of lavender–Karen’s most preferred fragrance.My mind raced in thoughts, my eyes fr

  • Becoming The Wolf King's Fated Mate By Chance    Cruel Rejection

    Chapter 1📍Shannon📍Today is the day I officially get to be mated to my boyfriend. I had waited for this day all my life, and now that it's finally here, I can't contain my excitement. The thought of it alone sends a shiver down my spine.My sister, Karen, was my rock through it all. She had supported me with the best dress for the event. I was never one for fashion; my introverted nature had kept me in the comfort of plain, modest dresses. But Karen? She knew exactly what would make me look good.And as I stood there in front of her, the silky fabric hugging my figure just right, I silently thank her.As we made our way through the crowd, I could feel the energy of the room building up inside me. The sound of loud music buzzed through every corner, with people clapping and cheering happily, all moving to the beat of the music. But amidst the large crowd, my eyes were only searching for one person.Damien. My mate.I stood there, scanning the room carefully when suddenly I heard a

    Chapter 2📍Shannon📍I gathered the broken pieces of myself and rushed out of the hall, Damien’s words still repeating in my head like an endless echo. I had had enough for today. I thought this would be one of those rare days when I wouldn’t have to feel bad about not awakening my wolf strength for the past two years. But things turned out even worse. As if that wasn’t enough, Damien had just rejected me. The pain was unbearable. I got into a cab, heading home—the only place where I could find some peace when things like this happened. I had no one else. No friend. No mate. Nothing. My life was a complete mess. As I reached the packhouse, my gaze fell on father. But he wasn’t alone. He stood with a group of men, all of them deep in conversation. Their expressions were serious, their voices low. Something felt… off. Curious, I moved closer, wanting to know what was going on. “Hey, Pops. What—” Before I could finish, strong hands grabbed me. A rough palm covered my m

    Chapter 3📍Shannon📍I stood frozen at the gate, my breath hitching as I took in the scene before me. I was both dumbfounded and embarrassed as my eyes stayed glued to the spot.Before I could react, strong hands clamped down on my shoulders, pushing me forward. A startled gasp escaped my lips as I stumbled, barely catching my balance. They didn’t care. Not one bit. My heart pounded in my chest, a mix of fear and frustration burning inside me. Just then, someone else joined us. I felt it before I saw him—the shift in the air, the way the men around me straightened, lowering their heads in respect. And when I finally looked up, I understood why. The man standing before me was clearly in charge. His gaze was sharp, unreadable, and he carried himself with a quiet authority that made my stomach twist. He let out a smirk which sent my mind spinning in thoughts. I was almost getting lost in his calm hazel eyes when I felt his rough grip on my shoulder.His grip was firm but not painfu

    CHAPTER 22~Evan~Though she had left, I still couldn't get those words off my head. Freya was not one to just make empty promises. She always ends up fulfilling whatever she says, and now I couldn't help but wonder what she's up to this time.Nonetheless, I didn't let that get to me. She could as well go to hell for all I care. And the elders advocating for her? They are just as good as useless. If they think I'd succumb so easily to choose her as my mate, after everything she had done to me, then the joke is obviously on them.My gaze shifted to Shannon when I closed the door, and she lowered her head, darting her eyes away as soon as she saw me turn.I marched forward, crossing my arms and waiting for an explanation from her. She had to explain the reason why Logan was so confident speaking so ill of her back at the grand hall.Why did she have to run when the only thing she was supposed to do was stay back there and defend herself of all those allegations?

    CHAPTER 21~Evan~With the chaos going on in my head, I could have as well chosen to go with everything Logan had said, but I waved it off instead.I made my way to my quarters, my head pounding as I reminisced on those words over and over again.I couldn't believe it, no matter how certain and sure Logan had sounded earlier. I needed to hear from the horse's mouth herself… only then would I be able to conclude that she was really guilty after all.“Put your eyes on Shannon…” I said, turning to Owen. He looked terribly worried, and he wouldn't just leave my side after everything that just happened. “As soon as she tries to get out of the room, get her and bring her to me. Am I understood?”His eyes stretched slightly, but he nodded, too scared to even utter a word. He walked out at once, and at that point, I felt like a huge burden had been lifted off my shoulders.I heaved a deep sigh, leaning towards the large dressing mirror beside my bed. I guess I just needed some time alone to g

    CHAPTER 20~Evan~I went after her, yelling her name relentlessly, but she didn't bat an eye. She didn't even bother to look back, let alone stop to at least hear what I had to say.But that didn't stop me from going further. I had a lot of questions to ask and she clearly was in the right position to answer them.I hastened my steps, desperate to catch up with her, but I was rather too late. Before I could get any closer, she had already stormed into the room ahead, shutting the door firmly behind her.I pressed forward and knocked on the door repeatedly, but she never responded, not even once. At that point, I heard someone yell my name, and when I turned, there he was–one of the guards. He stood before me, his breath ragged and shallow.My gaze turned towards him, my eyes cold and impatient. “What do you want?” I asked, trying so hard to control the anger boiling inside me.His breath stopped almost immediately and he snapped his head upwards, facing me. “My king…” He started, his
